Closing in on my full set for NES NTSC, ~40 to go! (see attached)

Any pointers, lemme know.

I'm not actively seeking stadium events, nor the steamy casino trilogy. Not that many truly heavy hitters left, but some pretty obscure ones that are tough to find in decent shape at a fair price. Already picked up the 5x highlighted titles, but there are also some variants beyond what's listed.

Looking forward to finding fun ways to expand this specific collection, picking up books, figures, boxes, etc, along the way. No real interest in moving into another platform (e.g., SNES) as these are the games that shaped me. Genesis did some heavy lifting, but I can't begin to think about storage for that set lol.

Happy hunting y'all, it's been a hell of a ride.

Weekly picks! Cowboy Kid is finally mine!!

Cowboy Kid is the heavy hitter, but no slouch in Chip & Dale's Rescue Rangers 2, Linux Spacehead, Jimmy Connors Tennis, Dudes with Attitude, and Gold Medal 92 rounding out the half dozen. Also finally got all my Chromatic games boxed and shelved, and a few new famicom pickups cleaned up to play. Ordered a few cool Famicom Disk System titles which should show up next week, can't wait to check that system out.

It took a LOT of self restraint to not pick up an additional dozen or so titles that were starting at me on the shelf but weren't fiscally responsible. Like, a lot of self restraint.

I think this brings me to 781 unique official pre-96 releases at this point inclusive of variants. Getting so so close :)

Happy hunting y'all, best of luck out there!

Dragon Fighter, Wayne's World, and Rollerblade Racer

Adding these latest gems to the shelf and table, very exciting pickups.

Dragon Fighter is immaculate and will probably be headed to the "elite" display. Pretty fun little side scroller, akin to a less optimized ninja gaiden on first play.

Wayne's World is straight insanity and I kinda can't believe it's a finished product lol. First level playing as Garth in a music shop nightmare with a gun? Wtf. Lol.

Rollerblade Racer makes me wonder, did they play paperboy once and decide I could make that. Kinda. But not good... Certainly no reason to own it CiB, but that's how I found it after a lot of searching.

Anyways, getting closer and closer to complete, and loving every minute of it. Happy hunting y'all :)
